This is music unlike anything seen before at Big Hit Music.

Boy group Cortis (CORTIS) has proven its title as "Young Creator Crew."

On the afternoon of the 20th, a showcase was held at Yes24 Live Hall in Gwangjang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, to celebrate the release of Cortis (Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyun, Geonho)'s second mini album "GREENGREEN" and its title track "REDRED."

On this day, Martin said, "For this comeback, we aimed to tell Cortis's own story through various challenges and experiments. We hope you enjoy it. We are confident it will be well-received. From the moment the second verse began and the first verse bass started playing, it gave us goosebumps. Isn't the song's temperature hot? It always feels boiling, so it's one of our favorite tracks to date," sharing his thoughts on the comeback and expressing confidence in the new song.

"GREENGREEN" is a new song filled with what Cortis aspires to. While the previous work expressed the ambition to "color beyond the lines," this time it aims to clearly show the realm of possibilities they will pioneer. It also reflects the confidence of members who have continued to grow since their debut, concretizing what "Cortis-dam" truly means.

The title track "REDRED" is a song that interprets Cortis's pursued direction as "green" and what they avoid as "red." Starting from the members' ideas, the song's unique material and distinctive lyrics are its charm points, with all members participating in both lyric writing and composition to add authenticity.

The message to ignore even things others might dislike and to cross the fences in front of them is impressive. It is a song that marks the beginning of a journey to explore Cortis's own tastes and direction, breaking away from the world's standards and rules.

Cortis defines "Cortis-dam" as "honesty." Martin stated, "Honesty is also one of our core values. Even if there are parts, songs, or concepts we think look cool during production, we constantly ask ourselves, 'Is this truly Cortis-like?' at Navy Headquarters. While discussing with members and the visual team, we seem to create while pondering, 'What is truly our own?' and 'How can we preserve our originality?'"

Finally, when asked what kind of team they want to grow into, Martin said, "We want to become artists who have a single brand-like symbolism and make people think, 'I want to go see this team's stage.' We will continue to grow while creating even cooler stages and music in the future."

Juhoon added, "Just as we are doing now, we have a desire to constantly research new things and experiences we haven't tried yet, and to bring forth even greater achievements."

Cortis's new song "REDRED" will be released on the 20th at 6 p.m. through various online music platforms. The second mini album "GREENGREEN" will be released on May 4.
